EXCELLENT!!! Thank you Clive for taking some great photos and posting them ... :cheers:

Wonderful to see all of you MLU-ers there. I can tell a good time was had. Especially by Geoff surrounded by the Gracies girls :)

By the way, the photo of Geoff, closeup, all Dressed-and-Digger-ed-Up, is awesome. (You look great, Geoff, and very happy amongst your MLU-ers! ... you created that :p )

Rob,

Thanks for the invite to Gracies. I had a great time.
It was nice to put faces to the names in the forum. Thanks Clive for the pictures. As for the short skirts, the waitress on Jeff's left has left little to the imagination as something appears to have gotten shorter. The waitress' there have got legs that go until they make an *** of themselves.

:cheers:
Greg

Geoff,

On behalf of all the Ottawa Rotters, thank you for taking the time to attend our gathering. I echo Bob's sentiments, and would like to add, that we were delighted to hear that you were going to attend. It was a fun night, and your presence added greatly to the experience.

We Rotters are a clamorous lot, but we have one thing in common - our interest in military vehicles. I want to thank you (the "royal" you) for sponsoring and running MLU, and for providing us with an outlet for our passions (I await the comments on that statement with baited breath...). I hope you have your Porter Air ticket for BB this summer!

It was good to see you out and about, and I thank you for your sterling contributions to our hobbys.

Asleep? Nay! I say.

Geoff is just following Mick Jagger's advice in the song "Paint it Black" - waiting until his "darkness goes"...

I hope you like the latest shots, Cliff. Just be careful that our better halves don't see us having too much innocent, harmless and nonsexist fun.

Thank you for your kind remarks, Rob. It seems you're not at all like the way people talk about you... :D :p

I may have created this site, but if it's a success, it's because of the participation of all of you. That alone humbles me. :salute:

Methinks Jessie got a little more than she bargained for when she came to work that evening... :D

Okay folks, I know the Alex, Clive, Geoff and Bob faces ... and seem to remember meeting some of the others at CC4 and ??? but don't remember names ... Who's who in these photos? :)

Well Geoff, again, you look great in the digger hat and when I get to Australia, you tagging along beside me, I'll see what I can do to find you a lovely Aussie date ... and I know how you seem smitten with "blonds" ... I'll see what I can do :D Beccy is busy so I'll have to find someone else.

Hmmmmmm ... we'll be going to the Zoo. :D :p

Due to an impending lawsuit, we Rotters are unable to supply any information or comment on who attended this meeting...besides, some of our sweeties would be put out if they tuned into MLU and saw us having fun...

You can visit the "A Great Day At The Hammond Barn" thead to cross-reference me (assuming that you already recognize Bob and Rob).

I, of course, was there to add a touch of style and dignity to what would otherwise be nothing more than a gathering of beer-swiling, post-bellum, grease-monkeys.
On the other hand, I have witnesses and receipts showing that I was in Montreal at that time and my likeness in the photos is either a cardboard cut-out or very clever Photoshopping. :teach:

Thank you very much for the compliments Clive, just not sure what post-bellum means but I'm sure it is a compliment as well.

You can rest assured that your cardboard likeness had a top notch time sorry you were in Montreal.

Just caught this, you rotten swine... I was NOT... and certainly not with that delightfully short skirt in front of my face... amazing, the view you have seated sometimes (just ask Alex, who also explained and demonstrated the mechanics of Stalkers' Station)...
